I had to do a reinstall of the SRE due to a problem with the VM environment.  The uninstall went fine, of course, but now I am running into issues with installing the SRE package.
 
This is what it says when it fails:

This is all I am seeing in the router log:

Mar 12 08:48:14 CST: %SM_INSTALL-3-INST_SCRIPT_FAIL: Execution of script sre-v-k9-r.SPA.smv.1.5.1.pkg.install.sre failed, installation aborted

Just to verify, I am using ser-v-k9.r.SPA.smc.1.5.1.zip as the source files. I extract that zip file, and there are 7 files in that zip file.
